Description

Honors in Art History: Senior Year Qualified students who want to pursue Honors in Art History should identify an area of interest, select an appropriate advisor, and apply for eligibility to the art history faculty before April 1 of their junior year. The honors thesis is a year-long project, and the student registers for one section of ARTH 297 each semester. During the first semester, the student completes research and begins the writing process. In the second semeseter, the thesis is completed, and is submitted no later than April 15. A second reader, chosen by the student and advisor, will participate in the final evaluation. Credit is given for course work completed, even if a student is not recommended for honors. The honors in art history fulfills two area requirement courses for the art history major. May be repeatable for credit.
